Definitions
- the present invention relates to nanoparticles comprising a poorly water-soluble cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor (CETPI) and a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer.
- CETPI poorly water-soluble cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor
- Atherosclerosis and its associated coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in the industrialized world.
- CAD coronary artery disease
- CHD coronary heart disease
- LDL-cholesterol may be the most recognized form of dyslipidemia, it is by no means the only significant lipid associated contributor to CHD.
- Low HDL-cholesterol is also a known risk factor for CHD (Gordon, D. J., et al., “High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Cardiovascular Disease”, Circulation, (1989), 79: 8-15).
- dyslipidemia is not a unitary risk profile for CHD but may be comprised of one or more lipid aberrations.
- cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity affects all three.
- the net result of CETP activity is a lowering of HDL cholesterol and an increase in LDL cholesterol. This effect on lipoprotein profile is believed to be pro-atherogenic, especially in subjects whose lipid profile constitutes an increased risk for CHD.
- CETPIs have been developed which inhibit CETP activity, and thus, if present in the blood, should result in higher HDL cholesterol levels and lower LDL cholesterol levels. To be effective, such CETPIs must be absorbed into the blood. Oral dosing of CETPIs is preferred because to be effective such CETPIs must be taken on a regular basis, such as daily. Therefore, it is preferred that patients be able to take CETPIs by oral dosing rather than by injection.
- CETPIs particularly those that have high binding activity
- Such compounds have generally proven to be difficult to formulate for oral administration such that high bioavailabilities are achieved.
- Nanoparticles are of interest for a variety of reasons, such as to improve the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs, to provide targeted drug delivery to specific areas of the body, to reduce side effects, or to reduce variability in vivo.
- a variety of approaches have been taken to formulate drugs as nanoparticles have been taken to formulate drugs as nanoparticles.
- One approach is to decrease the size of crystalline drug by grinding or milling the drug in the presence of a surface modifier. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,145,684.
- Another approach to forming nanoparticles is to precipitate the drug in the presence of a film forming material such as a polymer. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,118,528.
- a pharmaceutical composition comprises nanoparticles, the nanoparticles comprising (a) a CETPI having an aqueous solubility of less than 1 mg/mL over the pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 at 25° C., at least 90 wt % of the CETPI in the nanoparticle being non-crystalline, and (b) a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer; wherein the nanoparticles have an average size of less than 500 nm, and wherein the nanoparticles comprise a core, and the CETPI and the non-ionizable polymer collectively constitute at least 80 wt % of the core.
- the nanoparticles further comprise a surface stabilizer.
- the CETPI is selected from the group consisting of (2R)-3-[[3-(4-chloro-3-ethylphenoxy)phenyl][[3-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl]methyl]amino]-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-propanol; trans-(2R,4S)-2-(4- ⁇ 4-[(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-amino]-2-ethyl-6-trifluoromethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-quinoline-1-carbonyl ⁇ -cyclohexyl)-acetamide amine; (3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(cyclohexyl-methoxy-methyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-amine;
- the CETPI is (2R)-3-[[3-(4-chloro-3-ethylphenoxy)phenyl][[3-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl]methyl]amino]-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-propanol or a pharmaceutically acceptable form thereof.
- the non-ionizable polymer is selected from the group consisting of methylcellulose, ethylcellulose, propylcellulose, butylcellulose, cellulose acetate, cellulose propionate, cellulose butyrate, cellulose acetate butyrate, cellulose acetate propionate, methyl cellulose acetate, methyl cellulose propionate, methyl cellulose butyrate, ethyl cellulose acetate, ethyl cellulose propionate, ethyl cellulose butyrate, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose propionate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose butyrate, poly(lactide), poly(glycolide), poly( ⁇ -caprolactone), poly(lactide-co-glycolide), poly(lactide-co- ⁇ -caprolactone), poly(ethylene oxide-co- ⁇ -caprolactone), poly(ethylene oxide-co- ⁇
- the non-ionizable polymer is selected from the group consisting of ethylcellulose and poly(ethylene oxide-co- ⁇ -caprolactone).
- Nanoparticles comprising a CETPI and a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer result in a material that improves the bioavailability of the CETPI when administered to an aqueous use environment.
- the nanoparticles maintain the CETPI within a solid (or at least undissolved) polymer matrix when the nanoparticles are suspended in an aqueous solution.
- the nanoparticles of the present invention comprise a CETPI and a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer.
- a CETPI and a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer.

- the average size of the nanoparticles is less than 400 nm, more preferably less than 300 nm, more preferably less than 200 nm, more preferably less than 150 nm, and most preferably less than 100 nm.
- the width of the particle size distribution in suspension is given by the “polydispersity” of the particles, which is defined as the relative variance in the correlation decay rate distribution, as is known by one skilled in the art. See B. J. Fisken, “Revisiting the method of cumulants for the analysis of dynamic light-scattering data,” Applied Optics, 40(24), 4087-4091 (2001) for a discussion of cumulant diameter and polydispersity.
- the polydispersity of the nanoparticles is less than 0.5. More preferably, the polydispersity of the nanoparticles is less than about 0.3. In one embodiment, the average size of the nanoparticles is less than 500 nm with a polydispersity of 0.5 or less.

In yet another embodiment, the average size of the nanoparticles is less than 200 nm with a polydispersity of 0.3 or less.
- the nanoparticles can exist in a number of different configurations.
- the nanoparticles comprise a core, the core comprising the CETPI and the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer.
- the term “core” refers to the interior portion of the nanoparticle.
- the nanoparticles also have a “surface portion,” meaning the outside or exterior portion of the nanoparticle.
- the nanoparticles consist of a core (i.e., the interior portion) and a surface portion.
- materials may be adsorbed to the surface portion of the nanoparticle. Materials adsorbed to the surface portion of the nanoparticle are considered part of the nanoparticle, but are distinguishable from the core of the nanoparticle.

- T g glass-transition temperature
- the core may exhibit a T g that is different than the T g of pure CETPI or pure polymer.
- less than 20 wt % of the CETPI is present in pure CETPI domains, while the remaining CETPI is homogeneously distributed throughout the non-ionizable polymer.
- the core comprises the CETPI, the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer, and an optional surface stabilizer.
- the core may be (1) a homogeneous molecular mixture of the CETPI, non-ionizable polymer, and optional surface stabilizer, (2) domains of pure the CETPI, domains of pure non-ionizable polymer, and domains of pure surface stabilizer distributed throughout the core, or (3) any combination of these states or those states that lie between them.
- the CETPI, non-ionizable polymer, and surface stabilizer are homogeneously distributed throughout the core as a supersaturated solid solution.
- the surface portion of the nanoparticle has a higher concentration of surface stabilizer relative to the nanoparticle as a whole.
- the core comprises the CETPI and the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer, with the surface stabilizer adsorbed to the surface portion of the nanoparticle.
- the core comprises the CETPI, the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer, and a portion of the surface stabilizer.
- the remaining portion of the surface stabilizer is adsorbed to the surface portion of the nanoparticle.
- a portion of the surface stabilizer is integral to the core, while the remaining portion of surface stabilizer is adsorbed to the surface portion of the nanoparticle.
- Non-crystalline means a particular solid form of a compound that exhibits long-range order in three dimensions.
- Non-crystalline refers to material that does not have long-range three-dimensional order, and is intended to include not only material which has essentially no order, but also material which may have some small degree of order, but the order is in less than three dimensions and/or is only over short distances.
- Another term for a non-crystalline form of a material is the “amorphous” form of the material.
- the non-crystalline form of a low-solubility drug provides a greater aqueous concentration of drug relative to the crystalline form of the drug when administered to an aqueous use environment.
- the drug when the drug is not stabilized in the non-crystalline form, the drug rapidly converts to the crystalline form in the use environment. See, for example, Hancock and Parks ( Pharmaceutical Research , Vol. 17, No. 4, 2000).
- the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer is selected to maintain the stability of the non-crystalline CETPI in the nanoparticle and while suspended in an aqueous solution, resulting in an enhanced concentration of free drug when the nanoparticle is administered to an aqueous use environment.
- At least 95 wt % of the CETPI in the nanoparticle is non-crystalline; in other words, the amount of CETPI in crystalline form is below detection limits and does not exceed about 5 wt %.
- Amounts of crystalline CETPI may be measured by Powder X Ray Diffraction (PXRD), by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), or by any other known quantitative measurement.
- At least 95 wt % of the CETPI in the nanoparticle is non-crystalline, meaning that the compound exhibits no crystalline peaks when evaluated by PXRD.
- the CETPI is not in a “semi-ordered” state and shows no long-range three-dimensional order when evaluated by PXRD.
- the CETPI and the non-ionizable polymer are collectively present in the core in an amount ranging from about 80 wt % to 100 wt %.
- the CETPI and the non-ionizable polymer collectively constitute at least 90 wt %, more preferably at least 95 wt % of the core.
- the nanoparticles consist essentially of the CETPI, the non-ionizable polymer, and an optional surface stabilizer. By “consist essentially of” is meant that the nanoparticle contains less than 1 wt % of any other excipients and that any such excipients have no affect on the performance or properties of the nanoparticle.
- the amount of CETPI in the nanoparticle may range from 0.1 wt % to 90 wt %.
- the amount of CETPI in the nanoparticle ranges from about 1 wt % to about 85 wt %, more preferably from about 5 wt % to about 80 wt %, even more preferably from about 10 wt % to about 75 wt %, and most preferably from about 25 wt % to about 75 wt %.
- the amount of poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer may range from 10 wt % to 99.9 wt %.
- the physical stability of the CETPI in the nanoparticle tends to improve with increasing amounts of the poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer. Accordingly, it is preferred that the amount of poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer in the nanoparticle is at least 15 wt %, more preferably at least 20 wt %, and most preferably at least 25 wt %. However, too much non-ionizable polymer will lead to low CETPI loading in the nanoparticle. Thus, it is preferred that the amount of poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer in the nanoparticle is 75% or less, and most preferably 70 wt % or less.
- the amount of optional surface stabilizer may range from 0 wt % to 40 wt %.
- a surface stabilizer When a surface stabilizer is present in the nanoparticle, it preferably constitutes at least 0.1 wt % of the total mass of the nanoparticle. Often, even greater amounts of surface stabilizer are desired. Thus, the surface stabilizer may constitute at least 1 wt %, 5 wt %, or even 10 wt % or more of the total mass of the nanoparticle.
- the surface stabilizer acts to reduce or prevent aggregation or flocculation of the nanoparticles in an aqueous suspension, resulting in nanoparticles with improved stability. Generally, lower concentrations of surface stabilizer are preferred. Thus, preferably the surface stabilizer constitutes about 35 wt % or less, more preferably about 30 wt % or less, and most preferably about 25 wt % or less the total mass of the nanoparticles.
- Preferred embodiments of nanoparticles have the following amount of CETPI, poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer, and optional surface stabilizer:
- the nanoparticles comprise at least 20 wt % CETPI and at least 40 wt % of a poorly aqueous soluble non-ionizable polymer.
- the CETPI may be any compound capable of inhibiting the cholesteryl ester transfer protein.
- the effect of a drug on the activity of CETP can be determined by measuring the relative transfer ratio of radiolabeled lipids between lipoprotein fractions, essentially as previously described by Morton in J. Biol. Chem. 256, 11992, 1981 and by Dias in Clin. Chem. 34, 2322, 1988, and as presented in U.S. Pat. No. 6,197,786, the disclosures of which are herein incorporated by reference.
- the potency of CETPIs may be determined by performing the above-described assay in the presence of varying concentrations of the test compounds and determining the concentration required for 50% inhibition of transfer of radiolabeled lipids between lipoprotein fractions.
- the CETP inhibitor has an IC 50 value of less than about 2000 nM, more preferably less than about 1500 nM, even more preferably less than about 1000 nM, and most preferably less than about 500 nM.
- the CETPI is typically “sparingly water-soluble,” which means that the CETPI has a solubility in water of less than 1 mg/mL over the pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 at 25° C.
- Many CETPIs are “substantially water-insoluble,” which means that the CETPI has a solubility in water of less than 0.1 mg/mL.
- compositions of the present invention find greater utility as the solubility of the CETPI decreases, and thus are preferred for CETPIs with solubilities less than about 0.1 mg/mL, more preferred for CETPIs with solubilities less than 0.01 mg/mL (10 ⁇ g/mL), and even more preferred for CETPIs with solubilities less than about 0.001 mg/mL (1 ⁇ g/mL).
- Many CETPIs have even lower solubilities (some less than 0.1 ⁇ g/mL), and require dramatic concentration enhancement to be sufficiently bioavailable upon oral dosing for effective plasma concentrations to be reached at practical doses.
- the CETPI has a solubility in water over the pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 of less than 10 ⁇ g/mL, more preferably less than 2 ⁇ g/mL, and even more preferably of less than 1 ⁇ g/mL.
- the CETPI has a dose-to-solubility ratio greater than about 100 mL, where the dose-to-solubility ratio may be determined by dividing the dose (in mg) by the water solubility (in mg/ml).
- Compositions of the present invention find greater utility as the solubility of the CETPI decreases and the dose increases.
- the compositions are preferred as the dose-to-solubility ratio increases, and thus are preferred for dose-to-solubility ratios of at least 1000 mL, and more preferred for dose-to-solubility ratios of at least 5,000 mL, and even more preferred for dose-to-solubility ratios of at least 10,000 mL.
